[FP] Lemon Pepper Chicken & Parmesan Roasted Green Beans keto

My boyfriend and I have made this several times now and love it every time - he's not even watching what he eats (he is blessed with a slim build no matter what he eats) but he gobbles it up and asks for more. Here is a picture of the finished meal. This is my first time trying to post a photo, so I hope I did that right. Here are the instructions:

Lemon Pepper Chicken (marinade): 1 tbsp lemon rind, grated * 4 tbsp lemon juice * 3 tbsp olive oil * 4 garlic cloves, minced * 1/2 tsp salt * 1 tbsp fresh coarse black pepper or cracked peppercorns.

Soak 1lb of thin sliced (we've also used tenderloins, like pictured) chicken breast in the mixture for 4-8 hours in the refrigerator. When you're ready to cook, take it out on the counter, massage the chicken & mixture around (it thickens up) and leave it on the counter while you're prepping the oven. We lined an 8x8 pan with foil and cooked it for 35 minutes at 350 degrees F - came out perfectly. I figured the nutrition info for 2 servings in the batch, but you could cut that down to 4 servings and still get plenty of chicken. Nutrition Info (for a total of 2 servings in the batch): Calories: 442 * Total Fat: 23g * Net Carbs: 4g * Fiber: 2g * Sugar: 1g * Protein: 52g.

Now for the Parmesan Roasted Green Beans, which is a Skinnytaste recipe:

12 oz green beans, trimmed (make sure they are dry) * 2 tsp olive oil * kosher salt + fresh cracked pepper to taste * 1/4 tsp garlic powder * 1 1/2 tbsp shredded parmesan.

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line baking sheet with aluminum foil. Lay green beans out on the baking sheets and drizzle the olive oil on them, then season with the salt, pepper and garlic powder. Toss evenly to coat. Spread them out on the baking sheet so that they lay flat and place on lower third section of your oven. Bake for 10 minutes, shake the pan to turn; bake another 5 minutes. Remove from the oven & sprinkle the parmesan cheese.

Nutrition Info (4 servings): Calories: 55 * Total Fat: 3g * Net Carbs: 3.5g * Fiber: 3g * Sugar: 0g * Protein: 2.5g.

If you decide to try this, hope you enjoy it! We sure do!
